The Boss, also known as DGNA, is a South Korean boy band formed in 2010 by Open World Entertainment.
The group currently consists of Karam, Injun, and Jay. Mika left the group in December 2018 after posting a message of departure on his now deleted Instagram, and Hyunmin left in 2017. All five members of The Boss were formerly members of the generational band Xing with different stage names. After being officially announced on January 28, 2010, The Boss debuted on March 4, 2010, with the song "Admiring Boy" on Mnet M!Countdown.
Starting September 2010, The Boss spent a year promoting their Japanese singles "Love Power", "Love Bingo!", and "Love Parade" as part of their "Love Series" before returning to South Korea to promote "Lady" in October 2011. They have been referred to as "K-pop re-exported from Japan" because they used a "Japan-First, Korea-Later" strategy in their performances.
